Requirements for Volunteers

- FY24 CORI FORM
  
  We appreciate each and every one of our faith-filled volunteers who help build a community within our collaborative. The Walpole Catholic Collaborative is committed to keeping our parishioners, young and old, as safe as possible while they participate in our events and worship time together. Therefore, all of our volunteers are required by the Archdiocese of Boston to fill out a CORI form and have a new one on file each year. Please print off the most recent CORI form (above) and bring it to either the administrator who leads the ministry you are involved with or to the parish office to be verified and sent into the Office of Background Screening at the Archdiocese. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Archdiocese directly through their website www.bostoncatholic.org.
  
  Code of Ministerial Behavior
  
  All are also required to sign the current Code of Ministerial Behavior which must be on file with the Collaborative Office for each person active in ministry. The form can be found here:

  All school and parish volunteers must attend VIRTUS training. If you plan to serve as a volunteer in the school and/or parish this year, please choose to attend one of these VIRTUS sessions.
  
  Sessions will be scheduled throughout the year and typically take place in either the Blessed Sacrament School or the St Mary's Hall. NOTE: Volunteers may take the VIRTUS: Protecting God's Children training through any parish within the Archdiocese of Boston.
